It’s Sunday night, and that means you probably would appreciate a little something extra to enhance your zest for life and enthusiasm for Monday morning (especially if you’re recovering from Passover or Easter related family time). Thus, a super-sexy gallery of femme ladies with curves! Sweet dreams!

I’m a sort of chubby sort of butch woman. I thought I was above doing crazy shit with my eating and movement because I was a dyke feminist. I was not.
Does this make me a bad feminist? No, not really. It makes me human, I guess. Also, reality is complex.
As for your question… Funnily enough, now I need to get over the hatred for my own body, I truly fancy women (others)of all sizes and shapes.
When I was heavier, I actually preferred skinnier women. And I felt uneasy about it and yes, a bad feminist, a bad fat feminist for that matter.
Was I a bad feminist? I don’t really think so. It’s one thing to acknowledge how we might be influenced by our society’s beauty standards (and it is wise to acknowledge, how those standards might fuck us up as well, well, those and my mother was like Isabella’s mother in Weeds), but to feel guilty because we might share our society’s idea of beauty as well?
Fuck that! As long as we admit all women are awesome and not talk shit about other women’s appearances… One fancies what one fancies. Of course it is more complex than that. We weren’t born with our likes and dislikes, but still, I don’t feel the reason to feel guilty about yet another thing.
But of course, I feel guilty as well. But I feel guilty about everything. Catholic atheist here.
And sorry this was too long.

You like what you like and examining why you like and be at peace with it should be a goal. To agonize liking something that is considered mainstream or what have you is honestly fucking patronizing/condescending and I (personally) won’t have it! So I suggest that anyone really should get over it and not be an asshole about preferences.

I just don’t think it’s necessary to come into a post celebrating the sexiness of curvy girls to declare that you don’t find them attractive. As if that’s not done enough. And IMO I think there’s kind of a subtle implication that those who do are doing so as a brave feminist act and not as an honest attraction. :/

Zana for some reason your comment reminds me of a rant I read by Banksy (the graffiti artist) on how he hates advertisers for bombarding our daily lives and public spaces with images and ideas that afffect our realities. He is describing his justifications for his amazing graffiti, but it is such a true spiel about the way we feel about ourselves and others, because of this bombardment. Find the quote here (no. 21).http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0c8f5iZON1r5a4tn.jpg

Probably you are a bad feminist if you don’t fancy curvy girls because you think they should look like models and think that they are uglydeathfatgross because of some chub. If you just don’t fancy them but don’t really think ill of them and just happen to fancy another body type is no big deal.

I love love love fat positivity and see the beauty in fat/curvy womyn without fail but I still usually am attracted to slim people.

I mean… I don’t think that I would opt out on dating a fat/curvy womyn, I just have a track record of dating skinny people. I have had a fat partner before, so I know its not out of the question but I can tell that I generally prefer slim.

And I wonder at times if that is learned (and it most likely is) but I think the most important part is to never fat-shame. And to always be fat-positive. And never to body police in any way. That’s the least we can do, I think. The very least.

If you’ve convinced yourself you don’t like a group of people (ex. body type or sex or gender or race) you should probably explore this crazy, eclectic world a little bit more. Not to sound condescending- though, I often do because I’m a Scorpio (pride issues) – but, you haven’t met every curvy woman. If you haven’t met one you’ve liked as of yet ain’t no shame. But don’t write them off just keep livin.

While I am still in control of at least a small portion of my mental capacity, I’d just like to say how brave and badass these ladies are for showing off their bodies to the camera in a world that often happily represses them.
… and I’m now going to take a cold shower.

It actually makes me sad to see how beautiful these women are. Confidence in one`s body seems to be a hard thing to find these days.
The curvy women seem more able to defy society than those who aren`t.
I`m naturally quite thin, because of such I don`t like my body being ogled, especially by a camera.
One of those moments where I wonder if i`ll have the courage to get infront of a camera like them. haha
Either way, they`re beautiful.

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it a million times more: I’M A CURVY LADY AND I LOVE CURVY LADIES <3
It's so inspiring to see such gorgeous women photographed so tastefully, they're so brave! Kind of makes me want to do my own curvy shoot haha!
Thank you kindly Autostraddle 🙂

I love all the flavours of deliciousness Autostraddle serves up. I’m really happy to see this gallery! The hotness. I’m pansexual and I love all body types, genders, sexes, everything. HUMANS ARE THE BEST.

I just wanted to thank you for this post. It made me feel good about myself for the first time in a long time. I know that it’s not a good policy to base your estimation of your self-worth on other people’s opinions of your body, but it’s nice to be made aware, every now and then, that there is a space for me, even in a narrative that I usually feel excluded from, and that there is the potential for me to feel celebrated and loved.

Beautiful. Helps me remember to lurve my own body after being bombarded with images of slim women constantly. I still want to work on fitness and toning, but feel a lot less resentful about my shape after looking at these gorgeous womens.
